That’s a pretty good lineup. Certainly offering something different. An RPG for a change.
And a visual novel where you appear to have to date a selection of handsome gentlemen.
I’m not sure that one will go down too well. Or at least confuse some people.
And a port of a mobile game that looks reasonably entertaining.
And Datura, which is just weird.

Wow this is actually absolutely amazing, lords of the fallen is amazing not to mention Journey which most people probably have.
Well done Sony, you delivered

There’s always one!
Actually, there’s usually a lot more than that.

That’s the Na’vi word for ‘Awesome’ I think.

I’d rather spend an hour and half walking through an actual sandstorm than ‘play’ Journey again.
At least there’s no PSP games for PS Vita.

I have never played Journey…and I wanted to play Lords of the Fallen but haven’t bought it yet…next month’s PS+ is amazing for me!

I’ve looked at Lords of the Fallen a few times, so I’ll try that out. Journey, never played it on PS3, so that should be fun as well.

Not bad at all, Journey was free on PS4 for those who bought the PS3 version but it’ll be good to know there should be plenty of companions available for anyone playing it next month.
Lords of the Fallen received mixed reviews iirc but it’ll definitely check it out for ‘free’, and i’ve hovered over the purchase button for Badlands a few times so that’s a bonus too.
Datura was by Plastic, the creators of Bound. A psychedelic mystical ambulatory adventure, with optional Move controls.

Happy with all of that. Not played any of them but I have been interested in them.

Great month for me. I don’t own any of those games.

I’m with the guys on here also,not played but have heard good things about all of the games on the IGC. Also noticed not a single PSP game in sight,don’t know if that’s a good thing or bad?

Good line up. Trust journey to be released after I brought it in the summer(winter were) sale. It’s definitely a better line up compared to previous months.

Not impressed, nothing I really want, but I already got Journey, of course.
But I have been terribly mistaken before and found the odd gem amongst the rubble, so let’s see.
Bought several games recently in the sale, so I still got to play this fairy wolf game and the nuts painter one, and lots more in my backlog.
